Brian Saunders A Place In Greece Year 2

to Arthur Schopenhauer: the Wisdom Buddha

.
Buddhism is a very deep philosophical religion. He is far more than just a philosophy, for he is - as the Buddha pointed out very clearly - a doctrine of redemption:

Just as the sea has only one taste, the salt, so also has this theory .. . just a taste: that of redemption.
(Anguttara Nikaya 8,19,16. Quoted in H. von Glasenapp, the wisdom of the Buddha, p.110)

why it was useless for the Buddha, yes a waste of time to deal with matters not that objective, namely, the overcoming of suffering, . Serve In a parable he had explained very understandable:


If someone were to say: "Not before I will lead the sublime to the holy life, until he told me ' forever the world 'or' not eternal is the world `...", so he would die before the Perfect One would have told him.

Suppose a man would hit by a poison dart and his family had been summoned a doctor. The man said: "I would rather not be pulled out this arrow until I know the man who wounded me, and I know how he is, from what caste and family ... he is and how to raise the bow, the bowstring, the arrow is through my wound was taught. " Before the man could have seen it all, he had long been dead.

Mag one or the other of these ... Views exist or not exist, at least there are birth, old age, death and suffering to their destruction in this life I preach. So you like what I have said, declared that, however, I have not been declared as unacceptable explained. And why did not I explain? Because it is not useful, because it is not the holy life and is not renunciation of the world, to dispassion, to knowledge, leads to Nirvana.
(Majjhima Nikaya 63rd Quoted in H. von Glasenapp, path to enlightenment, p.69)

The philosophy of Arthur Schopenhauer is in essence a doctrine of redemption, and as the Buddha was Schopenhauer (more than any other major Western philosopher) from the suffering of this world from. For that reason alone there are an amazing correspondence between Schopenhauer's philosophy and Buddhism. Schopenhauer was aware, as he described himself and his followers as Buddhists .

Madonna Yoga - Get into the groove

A yoga evening of a very different way you can on Saturday, 24 October 2009 to do: There will be the next Madonna's yoga. An exceptional and unique event that combines yoga with music by Madonna.

Yoga is an ancient Indian tradition, the body exercises with breathing, relaxation and meditation combined. Madonna is a superstar for over 25 years in the pop business: your interest in yoga has the late 90s triggered a yoga boom in the U.S.. This yoga-music evening brings together both: yoga exercises for strengthening and relaxation - And choreography to music by Madonna. This is the fun does not come off badly.

I myself have developed this yoga, with the intention to combine two of my favorite activities (yoga and music) and sometimes in addition to regular yoga classes have a way to yoga to lead to another level.

First we come up with yoga and music in the right mood, dancing, and we experiment with the elements of yoga and dance. Afterwards, the participants celebrate together on the legendary Madonna Mania Party further to the Schwuz where I am under the name DJ Abdul Beyond responsible for the music. Music makes the people come together.

Date: Saturday 24. October 2009
Time: 19.30 clock
